September 2014 Dottiebox Review
Dottiebox, sent me these boxes to review. Dottiebox is an artisan/indie subscription box that sends handmade goodies, coupons, and items from small businesses and indie brands. I love handmade products and items from independent artists. I have found that handmade items, are better made in most cases, than commercial products. There is also a mini Dottiebox that send 2-3 products for $10.00/month, plus $3.00 shipping.
The Details:
Cost: Dottiebox Full Size Box: $20.00/month Dottiebox Mini Box: $10.00/month
Shipping: Shipping is $6.00 for the full size box and $3.00 for the mini box. They ship anywhere in the US & to APO addresses.

First Look
Dottiebox includes an information card and some general information cards about Dottiebox.
Stamped Cuff $15.00 Thunder Cats makes custom bracelets. This one says smile. You can get bracelets to say anything. These are also adjustable, which I love, since I have skinny wrists.
Scarlett Kitty fru fru fizzy bath bomb $5.00 I am really excited about this bath bomb. I have seen bath bombs in subscription boxes and I have always wanted to try one. This smells so good. They also have some cupcake bath bombs. Check out this one HERE.
Lisa Leonard Designs Tote Bag $15.00: This is a little tote bag with the phrase “Life is a Journey”. I honestly have about 3,000 tote bags of different kinds, but I can't get enough of them. I use them to take coupons to the store, diapers for a quick trip, or trips to the library.
Einvite.com stationary sampling: $5.00 This is an invitation company. They sent a sample of five cards with envelopes. They also include a code for 20% off with the code DOTTIEBOX20.
This is the complete view of the full box. The total value of this box was $37.00. Read on for the mini box.

Flox Coasters $18.00: These are nice coasters. I am always loosing mine, so these will come in handy. These have four different pictures of birds.

Final Thought: The full box had a retail value of $37.00 and the minibox had a retail value of $27.00. I thought both boxes had nice retail values. I love the bath bomb and I can't wait to use it. I actually want to buy some more bath products from their site. They looks so pretty. The mini box was really cute. I can't wait to use the nail glitter. If you want to try Dottiebox, click HERE.
